Golden October

In October's embrace, the world transforms,

A symphony of colors in nature's arms,

The leaves don their robes of crimson and gold,

As autumn's story in the breeze is told.

The sun casts a gentle, amber-hued kiss,

Upon the land, in its soft, slanting bliss,

The days grow shorter, the nights a bit colder,

As October's beauty, we all behold.

Pumpkins appear in every patch and street,

Their grinning faces, a sight so sweet,

Jack-o'-lanterns glow in the dark,

Guiding the way as night leaves its mark.

Apple orchards beckon, a fragrant delight,

Crisp, juicy treasures in the soft, dappled light,

Hayrides and corn mazes, laughter and cheer,

In October's embrace, autumn draws near.

A harvest moon rises in the starry expanse,

Casting a glow, as if in a trance,

Mysteries linger in the cool, misty air,

In October's aura, a sense of something rare.

Ghosts and goblins prepare for their night,

As Halloween approaches, with its eerie delight,

Children in costumes, their faces a-glow,

Trick or treating where the shadows grow.

Yet October's not just a month of fright,

It's a season of wonder, a pure delight,

A time of reflection, as the year nears its end,

In October's embrace, we find time to mend.

So let us savor this magical October day,

In its vibrant colors and cool winds at play,

For in its embrace, we find beauty and grace,

October, the month, a treasure to embrace.
